Krishna's love and so-called well wishers..

When the young women of Vrindāvana heard krishna's flute song, their minds were captivated by the Lord. They went to where their lover waited, each unknown to the others, moving so quickly that their earrings swung back and forth.They all gave up their duties and went to meet krishna. Some gopīs were taking their evening meals, washing themselves, putting on cosmetics or applying kajjala to their eyes. But all the gopīs stopped these activities at once and, though their clothes and ornaments were in complete disarray, rushed off to krishnaSome of the young gopīs were married, and their husbands tried to stop them. The unmarried girls had to deal with their fathers and brothers and other relatives. Their husbands, fathers, brothers and other relatives tried to stop them, but krishna had already stolen their hearts. Enchanted by the sound of His flute, they refused to turn back...(srimad bhagvatam conto 10)Similarly, the thing is with us. Yes, we are surrounded by our so-called relatives and so-called well-wishers but all is illusion.

They may pretend to be such that they are concerned with our good, but actually no, they keep us away from krishna, the original good of any being. They shows us how this materialistic life is better, and try to make us live that way. They may even recall us of our so-called duties but their aim is to fullfill their own desires or to create another beast..they may appear to be very intelligent but as srila prabhupada used go say they are so-called scholars. They are not to be followed..No. We need to understand the positions of illusion and absolute truth, and to rush to krishna as gopis did who had the same so-called wellwishers who tried to stop them to reach krishna..but when mind and heart are surrendered, no illusion works. And then the real journey starts. We must surrender unto gopis only who can lead us in our love.
